Subject: [PATCH] ios: show pending invitee's received support messages in chat
 list preview

Mirror the android/desktop fix: a pending invitee's received support message was
dropped from the main chat list preview by the group itemTs comparison (received
broker clock vs locally-stamped group-event clock - not comparable). Bypass the
comparison when memberPending so the received support item surfaces in the preview.
